A-Teens Version
"Happy New Year" was covered by the A-Teens, released as a single in 2000 to coincide with Y2K. The single was released to celebrate the arrival of the new millennium, which explains the last line in the song's third verse being altered to "in the end of ninety-nine" (as opposed to the original's "in the end of eighty-nine"). It reached #4 on the Swedish charts becoming the band's fourth consecutive top ten in the country earning a Gold certification weeks after its release. The single wasn't released worldwide, only in selected countries. "Happy New Year", was released in Chile after their visit in February 2000. A music video was made to support the single's release.
